No, unfortunately 16-bit USB cards don't appear to exist, which is a little strange given that they could handle the bandwidth of USB 1.1 (on a PC laptop if not an Amiga).

Those are actually "PC Cards" which is sort of a 32-bit version of PCMCIA -- you can't use a 32 bit "PC Card" in a 16 bit "PCMCIA" slot. However, you "can" use the PCMCIA cards in PC Card slots.


The term "PC Card" actually covers both 16- and 32-bit cards. 32-bit cards are known as CardBus cards.
